Mazda CX-5 SUV SkyActiv-D 150ps 2WD Sport Nav 5d Owner Review

In their own words
Quality and impressive car for the cash. Far superior to our previous Nissan Qashqai. Excellent build quality, solidity, road stability, comfort, considered and uncluterred design inside and out, big and responsive power when needed and reassuringly quiet no matter what speed you travel at. Electric gimmicks not quite up to the Nissan's level, but a small sacrifice for a proper driver's car. A delight to drive whether for a short or long journey and easy to reset the driver's seat position with its 2-position memory settings. Heads-up windscreen info (speed, speed limit warning and sat-nav info) brilliant and unobtrusive. Deep Crystal Blue Mica Paintwork is awesome particularly when the sun is out; 19" wheels have stayed blemish free due to the sensible profile and sturdy sized tyres; Quality white/stone leather interior has stood up excellently with nothing to report. The only minor niggle relates to the heating controls' positioning, with the size of the display mode not easy to view and operate with the button controls without taking your eyes off the road. (I would have much preferred a dial and a larger display, but this is just a minor personal preference). Nearly three years old and due for a trade in soon, it's the first car I will regret having to return. With no obvious replacement from alternative manufacturers' new stock, I'd be more than happy to go with the same again, without question.
